LOL which can be complimented by the DIY chart;

'If in doubt - Hit it with a Hammer!'

...I never claimed it worked ;)

I am a firm believer in percussive maintenance *nods*.

I was told many many years ago by someone who use to do maintenance on miltary aircraft that pilots would periodically complain that the gyroscope was stuck and that it needed to be fixed. He'd wait until they weren't around and use the standard method of fixing it. When stuck you kicked it to break it loose.

You make it sound so posh, I'm going to have to remember that wording 'I believe this calls for some percussive maintenance' :D

Sometimes hit it with a hammer does work... especially if it's a nail not attached to any fingers.

Yep, it can also help to swear while hitting the project - so even if you don't fix it, you feel better ;)
